Resistance topull testing as determined by this test is used as one of thefactors in evaluating the EIFS assembly on a specific project.T

17、he values obtained by this test method are not purported to berepresentative of the actual wind load capacity or otherstructural properties of a specific EIFS clad wall installation,but may be helpful in assessing such load capacities.4.2 Since this test is used for field evaluation of existingfacil

18、ities, load results obtained from this test must be inter-preted based on sound engineering practice, applicable build-ing regulations, and codes having jurisdiction. It is the discre-tion of the test specifier to directly utilize the results derived bythis test method, or else to utilize the test r

19、esults with anappropriate factor of safety to obtain acceptable working loadsfor each project.4.3 This method is intended for use on test specimensoccurring or installed on existing buildings. The loss ofoutward wind load resistance of an EIFS wall assembly afterexposure to moisture and other weathe

20、r conditions may com-promise the ability of the cladding or other wall components toperform adequately in place. This test method does not provideany means by which the test results may be generalized to thelarger wall area. Such efforts should be based on experienceand engineering judgement.4.4 The

21、 manner in which the test load is applied may affectthe load capacity obtained from using this standard. A discus-sion of various load application techniques and their effects isgiven in Appendix X1.5. Apparatus5.1 Electronic rebar locator or metal detector sensitiveenough to locate metal studs or f

22、asteners of the underlyingstructural framing through the EIFS assembly.5.2 Pull test frame fabricated from metal or wood, asrequired, with capability of applying a concentric pull force tothe test module and distributing reaction force on adjacent wallcomponents. Pull test frame shall be provided, a

23、s a minimum,with a worm-gear winch and a nylon strap or wire rope capableof applying load to test module in controlled manner withincrementally increasing load intensities. Alternative means ofapplying a consistent load using electro-servo motors orhydraulic units are also acceptable, provided they

24、are capableof applying consistent, uniform load. It is intended that the pulltest frame be easily transportable and relocated so that it can bereadily used on saw-horses, scaffolding, or a swing-stage. Anexample of an acceptable test frame is shown in Fig. 1.5.3 Electronic load cell with digital for

26、ch is moved fromspecimen-to-specimen. As each specimen is prepared fortesting the bonding panels and bolting panels shall be fastenedtogether using twelve (12) 5.5 mm (#12 or 0.215 in.) diameterby 38 mm (1-12 in.) long wood screws or lag bolts installed ina prescribed pattern. See Figs. 2-5. Adhere

27、one 19 mm (34 in.)thick bonding panel to the surface of the EIFS in place at eachspecimen location. For testing purposes, temporarily fasten thebolting panel at each adhered bonding plate in succession withappropriate hardware, immediately prior to testing.NOTE 2Screw hole locations for both the bon

28、ding panels and thebolting panel must align for proper attachment; use bolting panel as adrilling template to achieve consistent screw locations and alignment onall bonding panels.5.5 Miscellaneous bolts and connection hardware.6. Test Specimen6.1 Sampling locations and number of specimens shall bes

29、pecified by the user. Primarily, this test method is intended toimplement qualitative evaluation techniques that lead to anaccumulation of information in an orderly and efficient mannerin accordance with procedures prescribed within GuideE 2128. If a hybrid method using a combination of qualitativea

30、nd quantitative evaluation techniques is desired by the testspecifier, then a random number generator method may beutilized to establish locations of test specimens required torepresent the entire building population. Include additional testspecimens at locations of suspected or potential problems,

31、suchas below window corners, at wall base, and so forth.NOTE 3For the hybrid method using a combination of qualitative andquantitative evaluation techniques, a selection method based on PracticeD 3665 may be utilized for this purpose.6.2 Locate metal studs within wall system (or else fastenerheads a

32、t wood-framed system) using rebar locator or metaldetector, and determine elevation or height of the specimen.6.3 For stud spacing less than 610 mm (24 in. on center),mark 610 mm by 610 mm (24 in 3 24 in.) outline on thesurface of EIFS that is centered over two adjacent studs. Forstud spacing 610 mm

33、 (24 in.) and greater, mark an outline onthe EIFS surface that is 610 mm (24 in.) high and with a widthequal to the stud spacing plus 75 mm (3 in.), which is centeredover two adjacent studs. If foam fasteners are present orsuspected within the EIFS clad wall assembly, locate the headsof foam fastene

34、rs using a rebar locator, then arrange bondingpanel in manner that evenly distributes the load across the testspecimen and mark the outline on the EIFS surface. At eachoutline marked on the wall, carefully cut through the EIFSlamina, thermal insulation board, and sheathing substrate,being careful to

35、 avoid excessive vibration during specimenpreparation that may adversely affect test results. Effortsshould also be made to avoid cutting or damaging the wallstuds.NOTE 4For EIFS cladding applied directly to a masonry substrate,saw blade depth should be set to extend 3 mm (18 in.) to 6 mm (14 in.) i

Record load from force gage at beginning of load stepand at end of load step, prior to going to next load.7.5 Continue test by applying increasingly high

45、er steppedloadings corresponding to approximately 10 % of the finaldesign wind pressure until the wall assembly fails. Steppedloading increments shall be held for one minute, and loadsfrom force gage recorded at beginning of load step and at endof load step immediately prior to going to next load. O

46、ften thespecimen may fail transitioning from one sustained load to thenext higher step loading increment.NOTE 8Once the next load increment is applied, it is common for theload to begin to slowly decrease, due to deformation of thermal insulationboard and elongation of test hardware.NOTE 9For EIFS c

47、ladding applied directly to a masonry substrate,adhesion of the lamina to the foam or foam to the masonry may exceed thecapacity of the load cell and force gage. If during load application themaximum capacity of the load measurement device is approached, theload should be temporarily released and th

48、e measuring device removed toavoid damage to the unit. A decision should be made by the test specifierwhether to retain the specimen on the wall and repair accordingly, or elseto continue the test to destruction (without load measurement) and repairthe entire opening thus created.7.6 After completio

49、n of pull testing, examine test specimenand opening, and document or record location and spacing ofstuds within opening, as well as spacing of adjacent studs onboth sides of the opening. Also record and document locationand spacing of sheathing fasteners, sheathing joints, andthermal insulation board joints. Test administrator shoulddocument or record failure mode, whether fastener pull-through, face delamination, lamina release, thermal insulationboard debonding, or combination of one or more mode types.Finally, determine whether foam or sheathing exhibits moistu
